As a former painting contractor, I always used top quality protection. Most people won&#39;t want to spend the money to buy the protective equipment to tackle the job you describe. yes it can be done, but not without thinking it through and doing it correctly. For most people, tossing old funky fashion boots is the right thing. I save thousands of old thing, old clothes and such every year, and it breaks my heart when I can&#39;t rescue everything and reuse it. Proper protective gear is an absolute must. Otherwise, no. propriatresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694898527978152332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8408278716063752455.post-10466154625013969452015-02-15T02:50:21.134-08:002015-02-15T02:50:21.134-08:00Don&#39;t throw out those boots!!!

I understand the concerns, but tossing out otherwise perfectly fine boots is IMO nothing less than a tragedy. <br /><br />What I do is first get as much of the old lining out as I can. Then I put them in a plastic trash bag and close the bag. Holding the boots upside down by the heels, I bang the hell out of them. This releases much of the dust. I then vacuum them thoroughly. After that, I take a cloth and wipe them out. It may take a couple rounds of this before they&#39;re wearable again, but it CAN be done with a little time and patience. <br /><br />Vintage goods are....well, old. Things don&#39;t go through time without some degree of damage. I believe in salvaging as much as you can from vintage goods. If you don&#39;t want to clean our your dusty/sticky boots, fine -- but please don&#39;t throw them out. Sell them to me! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8408278716063752455.post-76736247389457480632015-01-26T08:48:27.070-08:002015-01-26T08:48:27.070-08:00Add Brighton shoes and G.H.

Please contact the ebay seller and ask for full refund + shipping. This is something that new or inexperience sellers may not know. If they don&#39;t respond with a full refund, please file with Paypal. Don&#39;t toss them....you&#39;ll need to take pictures and maybe have to return them to the seller.
